“The voice of my beloved behold he cometh leaping UPON THE MOUNTAIN" (Song of Songs 2:8)... "my beloved is like a roe or a young hart behold HE STANDS BEHIND OUR WALL."
When we are a child we protect ourselves from hurt. However the very thing that is used in this way CAN BECOME A PRISON. When we try to turn to the Lord we find it hard in the long term to have the kind of un-hindered and free communication that He wants for us.
CONSIDER THIS...
"We have many more things to say and hard to be uttered, seeing ye are dull of hearing" (Hebrews 5:11)
We are spoilt for teaching and meetings in the western church. We go from place to place according to the preacher and style that we prefer. We even become cynical when we say... "I have heard it and it sounds great but I still hurt". Our worship has become routine and frantic, but our problems become worse.
CONSIDER THIS...
‘Therefore behold I will hedge up thy way with thorns AND MAKE A WALL, that she shall not find her paths... then she shall say... I WILL GO AND RETURN TO MY FIRST HUSBAND (Hosea 2:6)
So WHERE IS THE HOPE. The hope lies in being honest.
Turn to Him let Him love you. Let Him heal you. Let Him renew you. LET HIM BE YOUR FIRST LOVE AGAIN. (Revelation 2:4)
Be honest... acknowledge that He allows us to be in this position. His LOVE disciplines us. THERE IS HOPE but it is right in the middle of what seems to be a mess. (Hosea 2:15)
THE ENEMY SAYS ITS ALL OVER BUT GOD SAYS... YOU ARE JUST BEING PREPARED.
